Yesterday the Qt Blog released a preview for Qt Quick components, where you may have seen essences of the new Symbian UI such as the slim top status bar (with clock/battery/signal). Mistakingly the post was titled “video” for about an hour or so until a reader pointed out my mistake (I had two posts on […]

It’s a free application and it’s called Molome. Like stop motion videos ? […]

As always, the game-seeker Camb078 from blog-n8.fr has found a cool Qt-based game on the Ovi store called TreeMaker. This cute game is a physics based puzzle that has various levels and chapters, like for ex : Angry Birds. Basically you(some kind of a black bird) should sling across platforms and make(?) trees or get(grow) […]

Tommi Laukanen strikes again with yet another awesome step forward with QT QML projects. Inspired by Flipboard for iPad (which he says would be the one app to make him get one) he’s sought about to mimic Flipboard’s page turn effect with QML script. Flipboard for iPad looks great huh? I wonder what other aspects […]

This demo shows simple C++ and QML declarations in Qt Creator and explains how the declarations in QML are used to establish the UI elements while C++ is […]

There’s quite some potential with Kasvopus, hopefully it will receive more updates and more features, but for now […]

You’ll also see how the static elements when in Qt Creator can be […]
